Turns out – they loved her! According to what long-time Shelton family friend, Marilyn Philips, exclusively told RadarOnline, "Gwen and Blake seem to be a perfect fit. I think it’s great he’s dating Gwen. They say opposites attract and this is a perfect example. Blake and Gwen are essentially from two different worlds so it must be exciting for them,” Marilyn explained.

She also seems to think the couple are a great match, despite that fact Gwen’s visit to Oklahoma was nothing less than a culture shock. “I think when Blake introduced her to the family here it’s the most country she’s ever been,” Marilyn admitted. “She’ll have to get used to it. He took her to all the local joints. There’s not a Starbucks within 50 miles of here!”

But if the approval of both Blake’s parents and that of the locals weren’t enough, Jerry thinks Gwen still has one more test to pass. “She’ll probably have to go hunting with him!” Jerry stated. “I’ll happily teach Gwen how to fire a gun and call out a few elk. We’ve got a pink camouflaged gun if that’s to her fancy.”
